Unfortunately after his death things went askew. The stores stayed very conservative and were beaten by flashier competitors. His legacy however is strong and brilliantly portrayed in this fine article!

I have fleeting memories of the Sears Catalogue as a child. I guess today it has been supplanted by online shopping. In its time though it was probably the apex of shopping convenience and a master-stroke of advertising and marketing.
Quite a guy and quite a mind for business!

So many huge businesses have been built from the ground up by people who were given a tiny opportunity. I guess the strategy part is seeing the open door and walking through!
I too love the mustache!

He probably would have found a way to make it. Guys with that spirit succeed no matter what.
